That character, Holgrave, hypnotizes Phoebe but refuses to take advantage of her, and wins her love at the end. The author of this work included a preface which labeled this novel a "romance" which had "more to do with the clouds overhead than with any portion of the actual soil of the County of Essex." Much of the action of this novel centers on the search for the Colonel's missing deed for a tract of land in Maine by Judge Jaffrey, who was rumored to have framed his cousin Clifford for a murder thirty years earlier. At the end of this work, Clifford and his sister Hepzibah Pyncheon leave their residence, which until the Judge's timely demise had been haunted by Matthew Maule, who originally owned the land on which this work's titular structure was built. For 10 points, name this Nathaniel Hawthorne novel about a "rusty wooden house".
